Our recommendation

On Mac OS, we suggest the Komodo Edit text editor.

To install it:

  • Go to http://www.activestate.com/komodo-edit/downloads
  • Click on Mac Disk Image (DMG), and wait for it to download.
  • Start Finder
  • On the left side there will be "Komodo-Edit-6" under "Devices"
  • Click on "Komodo-Edit-6"
  • Click on "Komodo Edit.app" in the center column and drag it to "Applications"

To run Komodo Edit:

  • Start Finder
  • Click on Applications on the left side under "Places"
  • In the middle column, scroll down to to find Komodo Edit
  • Double-click Komodo Edit

Success!

Now you have an editor that you can use to open any text file, including Python programs.

If you prefer a different editor for text, check with an instructor before moving on to make sure it will work for the weekend.
